Probably, although the Northern Rock are very good with 100% mortgages. And you wouldn't keep a 100% interest rate for very long, either, given that you pay off a bit, and house prices rise about 2% a year anyway.

Yeah, depends on the deal I guess. But it's well worth taking advice on that because it can be a false economy to buy early.

It's not that bad.

Went to a gig there, it was interesting.

You'll be saying you're scared of Elswick or Dunston next;)

Oh, definitely.

We got a fantastic deal on a 95% mortgage. Just a shame we're having to do business with a building society from Coventry.

I got lost there once. It was very "interesting" in the never-want-to-go-back sense.

I'm scared of Gosforth, me.
